ESPN will forever be tied to College Football and will continue to run it for the foreseeable future, but it's nice to see Fox take a big step up this year. Thanks to them having tier one rights for both the Big 10 and Big 12 this season they'll have the game of the week for consecutive weeks. (Bedlam next week)
Their coverage is pretty good overall.

Fox is still a fraction of what ESPN.

I would like it but I find Gus Johnson unbearable. It hurts the broadcast. Give me Nessler and Danielson all day.

I generally don't like their announcers, but their streaming platform is markedly better for us cord cutters, so I'm all for it.

Fine but the announcers are terrible.

Fox needs to improve their HD quality. ESPN's streaming service is pitiful.

Yeah, I would dump Gus. Swap him for one of their NFL announcers.

Gus Johnson makes me want to stab myself in the ears with an ice pick.

I wish Fox had a PS4 app. Watch ESPN has improved over the past few month. I keep Goal Line going on a secondary TV and I had no lag issues all day yesterday.

Fox has always had the rights for both...at least since 2012.
Which network do you think has been broadcasting the Big 10 Title game?

I like fox, but like was stated above announcers have to go.

Anything that wrests sports away from ESP is a positive.

ESPN is too in touch with it's inner lesbian. I'll take Fox. unfortunately the SEC network is Espn. This is why Finebaum has to have little sugar britches on with him now. Next we will have transgenders giving us their analysis. I have no problem if you're weird, but don't expect a job because of it. this "ism" shite is out of control.

I can do without Gus Johnson hollering on every catch and every tackle.

I just hate that Fox doesn't have a way to watch on PS4. And I haven't set up my chrome cast to my new phone, and it's in the bedroom instead of living room. So I was salty I had to just watch it on my phone yesterday. Got home after game started and didn't feel like fiddling with it all

A little competition is a good thing, makes everyone better.

Both networks are terrible. ABC's coverage was the absolute best during the '90s and '00s. I feel like Disney moving all of their big bowl games to ESPN has hurt CFB tremendously. I used to watch all of the BCS bowl games religiously. From that great BCS theme song to the incredible production values to all of the great CFB announcers ABC had in their stable calling the games, I couldn't get enough of it. Now, I only watch major bowl games based on the matchup. If it's Penn State vs. USC, I'm watching. If it's Ole Miss vs. Oklahoma State in the Sugar Bowl, I have little interest in watching that game.
